[Fink-users] doxygen failure install kivio (koffice) packages

2003-02-17 Thread Chris Lamb
Further to my previous email, I have the following errors at the point 
of failure every time I try to install doxygen, I have selfupdate-cvs 
'ed !

sh: latex: command not found

_formulas.tex!

Failed: installing doxygen-1.3-1 failed

Any ideas on how to move past this failure? As the subject says I am 
trying to get the koffice package installed - I could really use kivio 
for collaborating with some friends on a software project!

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

2003-02-17 Thread Vivien Mary Kendon
This probably isn't a problem with the fink side of the tetex
distribution, but since we are discussing it, I thought I'd try asking
anyway.  I can get perfectly good landscape ps output from my latex
document, but I can't get landscape pdf output from it.

I'm on all the latest 2.0-5 tetex, and ghostscript 8.0.
Here's what I'm doing, lets call my document Land.tex:

I'm making slides for a presentation, note the preamble starts 
\documentclass[a4paper,landscape]{slides}

I run latex as usual: latex Land

To view it as a dvi, I use the flags
xdvi -paper a4r Land

To convert it to ps I use the flags
dvips -t landscape -o Land.ps Land

This works fine, viewed in gv it comes out upside down until you "swap
landscape" but that's not a problem.

But dvipdf and ps2pdf don't have a flag for landscape!
I tried using the paper size flags

-dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=842 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=595

and that turns a4 the paper sideways OK, but does not put the images in
the right place on the paper (it is either off to the left with ps2pdf, or
starts off the top of the page with dvipdf).  I'm viewing the pdf output
in gv.  I've tried a bunch of other things too, and waded through a lot of
the gs docs, but nothing useful came out of it.

Feel free to tell me to shut up and go elsewhere if this is out of place
on this list...

Thanks in advance,

-- Viv

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

I think it is not completely out of topic here, because it is an old 
problem, and the possible solutions depend heavily on the precise 
version of tetex installed.

I have found a method that works for me™, but I don't pretend it is the 
most professional one. Here is what I am doing:

Preamble starts:

\documentclass[a4paper]{seminar}
\paperwidth 219mm  \paperheight 312mm
\slidewidth 264mm  \slideheight 170mm

Then I do latex TEXT.tex, and for dvips I use the following:

  dvips -o TEXT.ps -h landscape.ps TEXT.dvi

The essential trick is the little file landscape.ps. It lives in 
~/Library/texmf/dvips/misc/ and is actually a symlink to one of two 
different files depending on which machine I am.

On the machine with Fink's recent tetex, the slides need to be turned 
by 90 degrees, and landscape.ps points to the file landscape_90.ps:

  landscape_90.ps  %
/_sys_showpage /showpage load def
/showpage {
[{ThisPage} <> /PUT pdfmark
_sys_showpage
}bind def


For earlier versions of tetex, the "270" had to be "90", because they 
turned the other way.

On another machine with GW's teTeX, the slides are upside down, and 
landscape.ps points to landscape_180.ps which is the following:

  landscape_180.ps  %
/bop-hook {
gsave clippath pathbbox grestore
4 dict begin
/ury exch def /urx exch def /lly exch def /llx exch def
180 rotate urx neg lly -2 mul ury sub translate
end
} def
%

Then I use ps2pdf without any decorations

  ps2pdf13 TEXT.ps

and it works. Don't ask me why :-)

One perpetual problem I am having have with tetex updates (nothing to 
do with landscape slides) is that each time the default voffset 
changes. After almost every update, my text is either 1 inch too high 
or 1 inch too low on the page, and not even the same on different 
machines. I got used to edit the "O" option in the file 
~/Library/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps every time.

2003-02-17 Thread Alexander Hansen
Ususally, when the "node exists" error occurs, the package just isn't
installed properly.  It may be that the deb file that you have for
system-tetex isn't right.

You're switching, anyway, so it probably doesn't manter.

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

2003-02-17 Thread Stefano
A way of getting the pdf in landscape format is to use the "geometry" 
package in latex with the landscape option, i.e.
\usepackage[a4paper,landscape]{geometry}
Then use your same commands to produce the file Land.ps and then just 
ps2pdf Land.ps. This should give Land.pdf in landscape format.

[Fink-users] Two questions about GSL.

2003-02-17 Thread Andrea Riciputi
Here are two questions about GSL (Gnu Scientific Library) package:

1) I haven't been able to run "make check" successfully, even if I've 
already installed Dec02 Dev update (still get "internal compiler 
error")? Any hint about this issue?

2) Would I gain any performance improvement recompiling them after 
installing Dec02 Dev update?

Thanks in advance,
Andrea.

Oh dear, this is clearly a seriously advanced black art.   
And I'm only a beginner in it it would seem...

Your method does not work for me.  If I replace my preamble with yours and
follow your recipe I get a couple of latex errors (it doesn't like the
a4paper option and mutters about magnification), and end up with a pdf
file containing a couple of blank pages, then my slides start on page 3,
but they are about a6 size, correct orientation, with a black box around
them, sitting in the middle left of an a4 portrait page!  (At least, I
trust that isn't what you thought I'd get?!)

If I don't replace my preamble, then your landscape_90.ps does nothing,
I get a portrait page with cropped-on-the-right landscape content.

If I use the file /sw/share/ghostscript/8.0/lib/landscap.ps instead of
yours, I get the contents rotated by 90 degrees so it would fit portrait,
but also offset so the bottom edge is in the middle of a portrait a4 page
and cropped on the top (now right) at the edge of an a4 portrait page.
But I get it in a _landscape_ a4 page so it is also cropped on the right
(now bottom) edge!  (But maybe I haven't commented/uncommented the right
things in that landscap.ps file yet...I'll work on it.)

Gawd...anyone else want to pile in?

Ahh, Stefano does:

Nope, didn't for me.  Landscape content, portrait pdf page.  Viewed in gv
and in Preview.

BUT, just found out part of the problem is with gv viewing pdf: I tried
one of my earlier tests in Preview and it comes out correctly!! (But is
badly cropped and aligned in gv.)  Yeah!!  Now I have to figure out
_which_ test that was %*|  And test in some more viewers...

Thanks for all your suggestions thus far...I'll report back if I can
figure out any pattern to what seems to work and not work after further
testing.

Yes, this is where I was too lazy and copied from your message and not 
from what I actually did: It is not "a4paper", but "a4" as option to the 
seminar class.

If you want to see some slides I am getting with this method:

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

2003-02-17 Thread Stefano
Hi,

I can not test it on my mac right now, but I just verified that the 
solution I suggested works with tetex on a digital unix machine...
It seems to work at least with the article, slides and seminar document 
classes.
What I do is the following. I have in the preamble just 

\documentclass{article} (or slides or seminar)
\usepackage[a4paper,landscape]{geometry}

(no landscape option in documentclass).
By the way, geometry is a very nice package, it lets you very easily 
modify the page layout with other options or just choose `letterpaper' 
instead of `a4paper'. 

Then run: 

latex file.tex
dvips -t landscape -o file.ps file
ps2pdf file.ps

(for some reason with the seminar class the -t landscape option in dvips
is
not even needed). 

The file.pdf I get is in landscape format. Indeed it shows up in portrait
orientation in gv, but I just have to select seascape from the menu.

I don't know why it's not working for you... I'll try it on the mac
later.

[Fink-users] KDevelop

2003-02-17 Thread Tom Dove
Hi all,

I'm trying to build LinPSK, a ham radio app, on the Mac again (it's 
broken because it was written for Qt2 and is not happy with something 
about Apple X11 now).

The author used KDevelop, and life will be much easier if I can do 
that, too. I've tried a couple of times (using Kdevelop 3.0, in the 
unstable section of Fink), but it appears to be looking for essential 
files like /bin/moc in the wrong places. I guess it doesn't know that 
everything is in /sw with Fink. Can somebody describe how to fix this?

what version of qt3 do you have installed?  This should be fixed (I 
think) in the qt3-3.1-5 and higher packages because the makespec was 
changed (so that it coded the Qt dir into it).

[Fink-users] landscape pdf problems

2003-02-17 Thread Ettore Aldrovandi
Ok, I'm adding my probably useless contribution...

I thought that seminar doses not play very well with pdflatex. How about 
using the 'powersem.cls' class and the 'fixseminar.sty' package from the 
texpower bundle? Say:

\documentclass[landscape]{powersem}
%%load other packages here...
\usepackage{fixseminar}

Powersem is a wrapper to seminar and fixseminar should be there to fix the 
seminar-pdflatex interaction oddities. You can still use the commands from 
seminar, I think.

The slides at

http://www.math.fsu.edu/~ealdrov/baltimore/talk-tp.pdf

were done this way.

Re: [Fink-users] tetex testing needed - landscape pdf problems

2003-02-17 Thread Stefano
Ok, I did the test on the mac and I confirm that using the geometry
package works for me, but I also seem to have problems with fink's gv.
Both the .ps and the .pdf files I get don't show up correctly in gv.
However they are indeed in landscape format. I can visualise the pdf
correctly using xpdf, acrobat reader and preview. The ps shows up in
landscape format in MacGhostViewX.
I am using Gerben Wierda's tetex and I have both fink's and GW's
ghostscript. I think that gv is using fink's version whereas GW's
version should be used by MacGhostViewX.

[Fink-users] popt dev package?

2003-02-17 Thread Eric
Hi,
I'm attempting to build Ximian Evolution under OS X 10.2.4 with the latest
devtools and Fink 0.5.1.  I'm working on one of the dependencies called
'soup', and it is looking for the file 'popt.h'.  I have installed both
popt and popt-shlibs, but neither include header files.

There doesn't seem to be a popt-dev package available.  Is there a reason
for that?  No one has time?  I'd be happy to help, but I'm relatively new
to Fink and have never built debs before.  :)

Thanks,
Eric

Do you mean you're building the evolution package that is in unstable?

It already has the proper dependency on "popt", which contains the 
headers.

If you mean you're porting it yourself, well, uh, it's already in Fink 
unstable.  =)

[Fink-users] problem running apps (again)

Ok, so I try to run Konqueror, and it gives the following:

 matt% /sw/bin/konqueror &
[2] 655
matt% konqueror: cannot connect to X server 

[2]Exit 1/sw/bin/konqueror

I have the apple public beta of x11 installed and running - at least, I double-clicked 
on it and it appears to be running fine.  Any idea?

[Fink-users] kontour

2003-02-17 Thread Rich Warren
I installed the full kde bundle from unstable. Most things that I've 
tried seem to be working. However, I'm having trouble with kontour.

I can draw polygons and ovals, but I cannot use the pencil tool to 
draw. And whenever I try to convert an oval to paths, it crashes.

I'm not running KDE, rather, I just start kicker directly and launch 
apps from the menu.

Also, I've noticed that the apps are not catching ctrl-clicks as right 
clicks. For example, kbounce is unplayable without a three-button 
mouse, since you need to right click to change the directions.

[Fink-users] Can't install lyx and xdvi after update-all

2003-02-17 Thread Gary Olson
I updated my dist, and that solved my problem with Can't download  
ldp.dsl-1.10 that I posted on 2/15/03.  I am not sure why that solved  
the problem.  Possibly there was another file that needed updating?

Since then I got a new version of Gerben Wierda's tetex dist.  I  
removed my other packages dependent on system-tetex as well as  
system-tetex, and then reinstalled system-tetex (current v.  
20010808-9).  When I tried to reinstall lyx and xdvi, I could not  
install them!

Here is fink output:

[Gary-K-Olsons-Computer:~]:-bash:558$: fink install lyx
sudo /sw/bin/fink  install lyx
sudo: /var/run/sudo writable by non-owner (040766), should be mode 0700

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these two things:

#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.

Password:
Information about 2186 packages read in 5 seconds.


fink needs help picking an alternative to satisfy a virtual dependency.  
The
candidates:

(1)  xdvi: Display TeX .dvi files under the X Window System
(2)  tetex-base: Base programs for a teTeX installation

Pick one: [1]
The following package will be installed or updated:
 lyx
The following additional package will be installed:
 xdvi

Failed: can't install package xdvi-22.71-3

I noticed that the dist now has an xdvi-system-tetex package.  So I  
installed that.  Then I tried to install lyx and fink wanted to install  
xdvi and I got the same messages?  How do I get out of this catch22?  I  
don't believe I have done anything that I did not do before in January  
when I installed fink on Jaguar.  I hope someone sees my error.  Thanks  
ahead of time.
